This is absolutely the best pasta bake I have ever had! Have made it 3 times already. Twice with cauliflower, one with broccoli. Thanks JD.
I'm thinking of doubling the recipe for tonight. Any tips or warnings?

Glad you liked it sodapop1971. You can double the pasta & the cauliflower - the amount of water will be the same.
For the sauce, grate the cheese 12 sec/speed 9, chop the onion 4 sec/speed 5, still cook out the flour for 1 minute and once the milk is added, cook around 8 minutes and that should do it.

I had somehow missed this one. Made it last night with a combination of cauliflower and broccoli, served with mini tuna loaves and garden salad. Fabulous. Only complaint I heard was that there wasn't enough for seconds so I'm going to double it next time (without guesswork) as doubling instructions are already here. Thanks Sodapop1971 and Judydawn

JD just found this little gem. I have a whole cauliflower screaming pick me pick me, so guess what I am going to pick him and cook him up. We will have this Wednesday night, Wednesday's is pasta night, well it was last week. LOL
I will add some bacon to it, anything with bacon in makes the dish a success in DS eyes.
Not a menu plan but don't need to buy any of the ingredients.
Thanks Judy
